"That pretty much sums up this live set from Tejas' metallers Pissing Razors, who rival fellow Texans, Pantera, with their inexorable drive to slam as many riffs into a single song as possible. That they can do this well in an old school metal context is a testament to their talent. New vocalist Andre Acosta does his best Phil Anselmo grunt impersonation on such visceral cuts as "World Of Deceit" and "Fork Tongue," sounding very convincing behind the band's double bass drum grooves and jackhammer riffs. The rest of the band rides the edges of coming apart on "Vengeance Is Mine" and the plain brutal "Justice Denied," but manages to keep it together. The only problem with their downright militaristic approach is that the songs begin to bleed into one another about halfway through the disc. Acosta even has the same spiel at the beginning of almost every song, inciting audience participation. All told though, these guys are far better live than in the studio and this proves it."

"Anybody who is a fan of tha razors knows that there's nuthin better than to hear these guys live....trust me I know. This is a great compilation that includes all of there heavy tunes from all there albums. the only flaw is that u can tell when they que in the audience; kinda kills that vibe but im not listening to the crowd anyway. Great cd to add to the metal collection. I would also like to point out my service with Amazon. I couldn't get any better service from anywhere. They were fast and convenient and im extremely pleased i recommmend anybody to use amazon.com as there place to buy cds and other items, there prices cant be beat. Thanx alot Amazon and keep up tha great work."
